The poche Surname
poche Name Meaning and History
French: from Old French puche ‘purse’, ‘bag’ (of Germanic
origin), a metonymic occupational name for a maker of bags and purses,
or a nickname for someone who was in the habit of carrying a
distinctive bag or purse. In the Middle Ages this was a universal
personal accessory, as clothing with pockets was unknown. In the
U.S. this name occurs most frequently in LA.
